Not sure how this blog turned into “Piracy Week” but here’s another related article – this time listing 10 musicians (including some pretty famous names) who all support downloading of music to one degree or another.
Following yesterday’s post about “No Copyright Intended”, here’s another relevant article from Forbes.com (via MetaFilter where, come to think of it, I may have originally got the “No Copyright Intended” link as well.)
I am of course talking about “Scott Gomez Day” in which we will learn if an NHL player making $7 million dollars a year can go a full calendar year without scoring a single goal (since I’m writing this later in the day, we now know the answer – he can!) Luckily, the fans in […]
I’ve mentioned Quora a couple times before. It’s a community-based Q&A site built by two ex-Facebook employees that some project will be bigger than Twitter and Wikipedia.
